COLUMBIA. Wednesday Morning, Jan. SI, 1866. < ol H m Mu In I-iO!?ilon. rr? t- lotfAr of tlificorresijondent Tilt' tilSt iv CWM -.1 1 of thc London Ti mrs, who is trjivel ?IU" ," the South, is dated at Co? lumbia, S. C., and gives a vivid no count of the track of Sherman's army, ::n<l the ruins of Columbia. We would publish the whole lotter, but, evidently, as "The Sack and Destruc? tion of Columbia," published from this office," bas furnished him with most of his facts, wc will not republish them. We make some extracts. The writer says: "Columbia had the repute of being one of the most beautiful cities on the continent, and even amid its broken walls, I should go further, and say that it must have been the most beautiful. It is as startling, there? fore, to come upon the ruins of a tine city in America, as it is to se?1, ou a sudden, the outlines of a beautiful temple in the desert which surrounds the old. capital of tho Moguis. Co? lumbia asserts her supremacy still, amid all her unequaled desolation. Her streets are broad and long, and planted with a row of fair trees on each side, and often another row down the middle. She stands on a hill, so that a commanding view of a picturesque country around may easily bo gained from any part of it. But now, turn where one will, there is absolutely nothing to strike the eye; but shattered walls and pillars of churches, schools, and private dwell? ings. People who go to Pompeii to see tlie fragments of a destroyed city, shoidd come to Columbia, and seo one still standing stark and unburied in the sunlight. If any one can imagine a good English town of '2:5,000 inhabitants left with not a third of its houses standing in it, he may form some idea of the appear? ance of this unfortunate city. You walk down streets, between groves of trees, and see nothing but ruins of houses and large buildings on either side. Nor were these houses frail wot >den structures, easily burnt down. They were built of stout red brick, or granite, with marble steps leading into many of them, which the flames left black and shivered." As to the destruction of our city, he appears to be very well informed. Ile writes: "At the highest part of the town, there was a handsome edifice known as the State Capitol, of which not one stone stands upon another. Near this was a new capitol, nearly finish el, built of marble, the pillars and cornices of which were torn down and hammered into fragments that now strew the ground. Three or four splendid churches and as many chapels, a spacious convent, in which many poor ladies fled for shelteAill they were driven forth by thc sol? diery, a State library, many schools all we re burned to the ground. There were nearly 1,400 houses thus de? stroyed, the rich and the poor sharing in the common wreck. The miserable work was accomplished on the day and night of the 17th February last, and the horrors of that night can never be forgotten by those who wit? nessed them. More than 11,000 persons, mostly women and children, many of them sick, took to the out? skirts, with hardly a rag to cover them, ?md with not a mouthful of food to eat. Gen. Sherman promised to leave behind him cattle enough to sustain them, but the cattle he left died at tho rate of twenty head each day, from sheer exhaustion, and those that wen; killed were fleshless and bloodless." The following incident is true in every particular: ' "it should be understood that the city had offered no resistance to Sherman's approach, but that, on the contrary, the small Confederate force within it all withdrew the day before, and tho Mayor drove out some miles with a white" flag, to meet the invaders. He carried with him a hitter to Gen'. Sherman, surrendering the city, and asking for its citizens 'the usages of civilized warfare.' That same night Sherman said to the Mayor, 'Nwt a finger's breadth, Mr. Mayor, of your city shall be harmed. You may lie down to sleep, satisfied that your town shall be as -"sTife in my hands, as if.wholly in your own.' " To our own sorrow and deep afflic? tion, we know that some of the scenes represented below were actual facts, as we were sad witnesses of them: "Some cotton had been set on fire in the streets during the day, but it was extinguished, by the firemen of the city, until the soldiers cut their hose and broke their engines to pieces. Thee, lae reign of terror be? gan. Houses were first pillaged, and then set i'll fire. 'The soldiers,'writes an old inhabitant, 'could be seen staggering off with huge waiters, .uses, candelabra, to say nothing of cups, goblets and smaller vessels. Ladies were hustled from their cham? bers, their ornaments plucked from their persons, their bundles from their hands.' The eldest clergyman in the city was subjected to gross ill usage, while vainly endeavoring to save the communion plate of his church. In other instances, men were hung up till they were nearly choking, and made to tell where their property was hid. The soldiers were, hy this time, skillful in finding buried treasure, and they were busy with probing rods in the gardens of nil the houses." "We are glad that a reliable corres? pondent of the Titiivs has visited us, and given to the people of England a pretty correct rep. c of General Sher? man's visit to our beautiful city. Views of President Johnson. President Johnson said, on thc 28th, to distinguished Senators, that tho agitation of the negro franchise question in the District of Columbia at this time was a mere entering wedge to thc agitation of the question throughout the States. It was ill timed, uncalled-for and calculated to do great harm. He believed it would cause great trouble, and engender contention and strife between thc two races. It would lead to war between tin? two races-a war which would re? sult in thc injury to both, and cause tho certain destruction of thc negro population. Precedence, he thought, should be given to more imporant and urgent matters-legislation upon which was essential for thc restoration of the Union, to secure peace to thc country and prosperity to the people. Confiscation. The United States Marshal for thc Western District of Missouri, gives public notice that proceedings have been instituted for the confiscation of thc property of Gen. Sterling Price, and some fifty other officers and men of tho Confederate army; and that the writs in these cases have been returnable to the next term of the United States Court for that District, beginning on the 5th day of March next. The gentlemen, whose pro? perty has been thus seized for confis? cation, are among thc wealthiest and most influential citizens of Central and Western Missouri. Do we live under a republican form of Govern? ment? THE NEW YORK HERALD.-? Rich? mond paper states that among the untraceable rumors of the week, is the proposed early retirement from thc position of managing editor of the New York Herakl of Mr. Hudson, who has occupied that position for a number of years. Failing health is assigned ?is the reason. Mr. H. is I considered one of the best, if not the best, newspaper man in thc city, and the Herald's pecuniary success is mainly owing to his capable manage? ment, which even the indiscretions of thc propri?tor have not been able to counteract. Mr Putnam, financial editor of the Herald, and Stephen P>. ? Fiske, dramatist, and present con? ductor of the Leader, are spoken of as Iiis successors. -4 ? ? ? BACKING OUT.-A telegram says that a Major Graham has just arrived at Brownsville from the Mexican capital, who gives intelligence that Maximilian lias recently unreservedly expressed himself ready to make his exit from Mexico whenever the United States shall demand it. "MAY GOB HAVE MERCY UPON Us." J The Charleston Daily News has thc following paragraph : Mr. Ward, of New -York, in some remarks before the House of Repre? sentatives, on Thursday last, con? tended that the States lately in rebel? lion have the rights only of the criminal who pleads to thc judge for mercy. If this be the slate of the case, and if Mr. Ward is one of the judges, then may Cod have mercy on us, and ward us off from evil. - PRODIGALITY ANO EXTRAVAGNCE OF THE SOUTH.-From the following, which wc find in a late number of I the Macon Journal and Messenger, it j would appear that tho reign of ex? travagance is commencing in tho South. It says: The very idea of economy, and even of regulating expenses by income, seems to have departed from among us. Thc opening of Northern store? houses to our astonished vision seems to have run everbody crazy, the poor as well as the rich. Women dress as if they were locomotive signs for the milliners' shops, and men smoke costly cigars, drink fifteen' dollar brandy, and drive fast horses, as if I they were loaded down with riches, I and had but a short time to live, and nobody to leave it to. We shall wake I up from this delusion before many ! months shall have passed over our I heads; and when the crash comos, what an awful fall it will \tc\ I FROM MEXICO.- Official news from 1 Mexico of date of '2!)th December states that the French sent an expedi ' timi against Juarez, at El Passo, and abandoned it on hearing he had made ! preparations to repel them. Price or Wood In Columbia. J. Wood Davidson, tho "Contribu torial" editor of thc Yorkvillo En? quirer, lets off the following squib in relation to a new thermometer which has been discovered, to snit the lati? tude of Columbia: "We have a new themionieter in Columbia-the price of fire-wood. It is entertaining to consult this instru? ment. On a nice, dry, warm day, tlie wood hauler tarries long about the streets with his load; and if you ask him the price of his little load, he will answer hesitatingly and de? precatingly, 'Two dollars and a quarter.' Next day tho weather is colder, the wind is brisk and there a?e indications of rain. The. same boy, with a similar load, answers to your inquiry about his price, 'Three dollars and a half.' Next day, it is cold and raining, and the same boy will scarcely stop when you accost him, and answers tartly, 'Four dol? lars and a quarter,' (always a frac? tion.) Next day it is sleeting, and desperately bad in general. The boy avers that his load is engaged at five dollars and three quarters! "Such is our new thermometer. The price of wood indicates both thermomeric and barometric condi? tions of the atmosphere. "Such, we suppose, is life in other places, and may be everywhere; and it is all very funny-to those who have greenbacks." CURIOUS ANAGRAM.-The word monastery affords fourteen anagrams, as follows: "How much there is in a word-monastery, says I: why? that makes nasty Rome; and when I looked at it again, it was evidently more nasty-a very vile place or mean sty. Ay, monster, says I, you are found out. What monster? said tho Pope. What monster? said I. Why your own image there, stone Mary. That, he replied, is my one star, my Stella Maris, my treasure, my guide! No, said I, you should rather say, my treason. Yet no arms, said he. No, quoth I, quiet may suit best, as long as you have no mastery, I mean money arts. No, said he again, those are ivory means; and Dan, my Senator, will baffle them. I don't know that, said I, but I think one might make no mean story out of this one word monastery. "- Crescent. FREEDMEN LEAVING TEXAS.-A re? port received by Surgeon Horner, chief surgeon of the Bureau of Freed? men. Refugees, &c, from Dr. S. J. W. Mintzer, Surgeon-in-chief of the district of Texas, dated December 1, 18(>5, states that large numbers of freedmen are returning to Louisiana and other States, principally with their former masters. It is estimated by the most reliable citizens on the Sabinetown road that an average of about 300 freedmen have gone out of the State by that road in the past sixty days. Those with whom the surgeon had conversed expressed a desire to get home, and seemed not to like Texas, saying there was too much beef, and not enough of bacon there. High prices, we believe, is the order of tho day in every town and city of the South. The* Memphis Argus says: Everbody, now-a-days, complains of everybody else's extor? tion. The traveling community complain of the hotels; the resident population complain of both hotels and boarding houses; the hotel keepers, boarding house-keepers, and the heads of families generally, com? plain of the property holders, the market farmers, the dairymen, and, in fact, of everybody else from whom they purchase their supplies. To listen to these complaints, one would be bound to conclude that "the whole world, in these parts," had re? solved itself into a Universal Mutual Extortion Society. LABOR IS LOUISIANA.-Complaints ? still come from the interior of Louisi- j ana of the refusal of the freedmen to labor, and ii is said that they are in fluenced to this course by designing persons who contemplate being able to purchase plantations cheap, by in? ducing the present owners to sell on account of their inability to procure laborers. Sixty prominent citizens of De Sot o Parish have been arrested by tho military and imprisoned at Shreve? port, charged with killing negroes. FLORENCE.--This little town bids fair to become veiy soon a place of no ordinary importance. The most hasty visitor must be struck with the many evidences it presents of suc? cessful energy and enterprise New buildings are rising in every direc tion, new stores are being opened, and work-shops of many kinds are being established. A true instinct is directing its energes in tho line of work-shops and factories. [Darlington Southerner. TELEGRAPH TAM:.-An almost in? credible story is told of a telegraph operator in Washington, to tho effect that he lately received two long de spatches by two different instruments simultaneously, interpreted them both by sound, and wrote them out simul? taneously as received, one with his right and one with his left hand. A wag having married a girl named Church, says he has enjoyed more happiness since he joined the Church than he ever did before. PARIS FASHIONS FOR JANUARY. Paletots trimmed with fur over the seams and round the edges aro par icularly fashionable, and are the most striking feature of the winter modes, although they do not exclude the wear of shawls, or rich black velvet mantles ornamented with passemen? terie. Bonnets tend to increase in size, and to advance slightly in front. This advancement is counterbalanced by the application behind (in tho place of the ordinary bavolet) of a small white veil, of the description called a loup, as worn hitherto ?in front of the chapeau. Light blue velvet bonnets, trimmed ? with swan down, are very elegant, and meet with high patronage. Some of our young elegantes, who affect a desire to imitate certain points of thc military costume, have lately appeared in thc Champs Elysees and on other public promenades with a red merino pantaloon, Utting closely round thc ankle, and fastened by a black cloth gaiter cf unexceptionable cut. This pantaloon was the almost necessary consequence of tho three cornered hat, which is still seen occa? sionally in thc Bois de Boulogne, where it is donned by some of the youthful carriage-folk. [London Cosmopolitan. An abstract of the annual report of thc Croton Board shows the receipts of the Aqueduct Department for the year 1865 to have been $1,013,683, which is an excess of 857,858 over, the preceding year. Upwards of seven miles of sewerage has been constructed within the past twelve months. The full extent of pipes now laid for the distribution of the croton water through New York is 2<)8 miles. The fanatics of this country claim to be the only pure patriots. Dr. Johnson, of dictionary fame, was un acute observer of human nature, though a rather testy old fellow, and somewhat given to pungent criticism. He must have had the radical gentry of the present day in his mind's eye, when he defined fanaticism to be "a species of robust ignorance," and patriotism as ' 'tho last refuge of a scoundrel." Tm-: POOR NEGRO.-A joint resolu? tion has passed the Indiana Legisla? ture, requiring thc Governor, or his substitute, to enforce the thirteenth article of the Constitution, prohibit? ing the immigration of negroes into that State, and authorizing him to call upon the militia for the purpose, and holding him to fines, penalties and imprisonments if he does not enforce the law. Poor Sambo fares but illy among his pretended friends. REQUESTED TO RESIGN.-A resolu? tion was introduced in the Kentucky Legislature on the 23d inst., request? ing Green Clay Smith to resign his place in the United States Congress. Thc reasons for this move are his radical Republicanism and thc ex- j treme measures he has advocated in j putting down the Democratic and conservative parties at the Presiden- ! tial and other elections. THE TELEGRAPH SUPERSEDED.-A report of a most remarkable dis? covery comes to us from Italy. An Italian savant is said to have dis? covered a process by which sounds may be transmitted by an electrical process any distance, so that two persons-one in Rome and the other in Paris-may converse together, , recognizing tim sound of each other's | voice. A Virginia clergyman writes to the Post Office Department asking for a mail contract. He states that he docs not know as he can take the oath of allegiance, for he has prayed in thc pulpit during the war for thc success of the Southern cause; but, as the prayers were never answered, ht; is of opinion that no aid and comfort wert! given, ami therefore he remains a loyal citizen. INDISCREET.-A clerk in thc Quar termatster-Generar.s office. Washing? ton, named Jones, remarked the other day, on hearing the threats of assas? sination to Senator Stunner, that he was not exactly in favor of decapita? tion, but he would like to see him sent to his long home. The Secretary of War, on hearing of it, immediately dismissed him from the service. A couple in Litchfield County, Conn., lived together for ton years, supposing themselves married. Dif? ficulties having m isen, one applied to the court for a divorce. Upon inves? tigation it wan found out that they had never been legally married. Likd sensible people, they gave up the idea of a divorce and were married. NEGRO CONTRACTORS. -The Colum? bus (Miss.) ?Sun states that tho plant? ers in that vicinity have employed colored men to hire laborers for them with good results. Almost every negro contracta, and all the farmers say they are getting ns much labor from the blacks, as freedmen, as for? merly when they were slaves. -- . lt is proposed to make provision for carrying, on thc under-ground railroad which is to be started in New York. 51,520 passengers per day, or 25,625 each way. The trains arc not to run at a rato of speed exceeding twenty milt's per hour. 1 BIL.1I AKP IN LUCK. -We learn from the Borne (Ga.) Courier, that last week a box was received by express at that place, directed to Bill Arp, from his "admirers in St. Bonis, Mo." The box contained quite a large and rich assortment of dry goods and groceries, for family use, and luxu? ries. In Colorado, the gold ore is reck? oned by the cord-about eight tons but in Nevada and California always ? by tho ton. Remember the difference before von take; stock. (Jen. H. Li. Benning, <?f the Con? federate anny, is prominently spoken of as a candidate before the Legisla? ture for a seat on the Supreme Bench of Georgia. Every plain girl has one consola- i tion; though not a pretty young lady, she will, if she lives, be a pretty old one. What is thc difference between an accepted and a rejected lover? One kisses his miss, and the other misses his kiss. The gentleman who was overtaken by a train of reflection was so com? pletely carried away that bc has not got back. Death conies to a good man to relieve him ; it comes to a bad one to relieve society. A fellow that doesn't benefit the world by his life, does it by his death. We look for woman to be tender, although, according to Scripture, she was made out of a bone. He that can keep his temper is better than be that eau keep a car? riage. Blessed is the bald-headed man, for his wife cannot pull his hair. Limestone Springs FEMALE il lilli SCHOOL. Rev. IV. CURTIS, LL..D., Principal.

Their immense gas? ometer had fully live hundred holes punch? ed in it, thc props, supporters and columns were fractured; in fact, nearly everything about the pince was broken to pieces. Wo have every reason to believe that, to tho tho perseverance of Pr?sidant Talley, urged along and upheld by our old and indefatigable friend, Lewis Levy, Esq., and the mechanical jkill of Superintendent Derrick, are our citizens indebted for th? great blessing which we are soon to bo put in possession of once more.
